Hey Bruce, thanks for reaching out. I went out to our warehouse and measured one of the Weigh Safe Hitch w/ Built-In Scale # WS66ZR. It has two hitch pin holes, so depending which one you use, the distance from the center of the hole to the back of the rise portion is either 3" or 4-1/4". I edited a picture to help illustrate.
How much length do you need for the rise portion to clear the bumper?

I have a 2026 GLE450 SUV. I think it would just barely fit, but is there anyway to confirm on your side if this is available information? I.e. In rise position, would the rise portion clear the rear bumper? On GLEs the receiver is tucked under pretty low/far.
